Systems and methods are described using a Hermetic Transform and inverse Hermetic Transform for transmitting and receiving OFDM signal by replacing a FFT and IFFT with the Hermetic Transform and inverse Hermetic Transform. In an exemplary embodiment, an OFDM transmitter comprises a processor configured to receive a serial signal, divide the serial signal into multiple parallel signals, modulate each of the multiple parallel signals, perform an inverse Hermetic Transform on the multiple parallel signals and provide an output from the inverse Hermetic Transform to RF circuitry for transmission.

An alternative method of data communications using orthogonal time frequency shifting (OTFS) wireless waveforms configured so as to transmit data in a manner that is relatively insensitive to communications channel distortions and frequency shifts. In contrast to prior methods taught by applicant, the present disclosure teaches an alternative modulation scheme that maps data symbols intended for data transmission onto a symplectic-like 2D Fourier transform which operates on a form of the original data symbols. This 2D Fourier transform in turn is passed through a filter bank of narrow band filters, and the output in turn used to modulate transmitted waveforms according to various time slices until the entire 2D Fourier transform has been transmitted. At the receiver, and inverse of this process can be used to both characterize the data channel and correct the received signals for channel distortions, thus receiving a clear form of the original data symbols.

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for demodulation reference signal (DMRS) precoding in high-Doppler scenarios. In some aspects, communicating devices may support different precodings for different portions of a signal, such as for a DMRS portion and an information portion. For example, a device may receive a signal including an orthogonal time-frequency space (OTFS) precoded first waveform portion carrying DMRS symbols and an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) precoded second waveform portion carrying information symbols. The device may transform the OTFS precoded DMRS symbols from a time-frequency domain to a delay-Doppler domain, may use the DMRS symbols to estimate a delay-Doppler channel, and may use the delay-Doppler channel estimate to measure an inter-carrier interference (ICI). The receiving device may use the ICI measurement to receive the information symbols carried by the OFDM precoded second waveform portion.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. For example, a wireless device may support physical broadcast channel (PBCH) precoding in high-doppler scenarios. In some cases, a base station may generate a synchronization signal block (SSB) including synchronization signals and PBCH signaling. The base station may transmit, to a UE, the PBCH signaling in accordance with an orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) precoding and the synchronization signals in accordance with a non-OTFS precoding. The UE may monitor for the SSB and receive the PBCH signaling in accordance with the OTFS precoding and the synchronization signals in accordance with a non-OTFS precoding. The UE may establish or modify a connection with the base station according to the PBCH signaling.
